Lol the Guatemalan candidate will not even qualify. :lol:

 

Same goes for Seun Adigunova. :p Though at least she already has the Olympic status.

If Soberanis fails to qualify, then she will be removed from the list of candidates.

Same with Crumpton 

At least he has a realistic chance of qualification, unlike the Guatemalan speed skater, who just doesn't.

 

Considering it was someone's job to compose this list, they should have at least made some background checks. :dunno:
